Walter Moers is German (and that
hasn't been mentioned to insult him in any way). He is not a member of
Giraffs Without Borders but in spite of that he is very well known among
giraffes.

Walter M is an author and has
written the giraffe-bestseller "Die 13 1/2 Leben des Käpt'n Blaubär" which
has inspired the giraffe Jones B. Giraffo to found The Order
of the White Rooster.

The huge popularity of "Die 13 1/2 Leben des
Käpt'n Blaubär" among giraffes has made humans read the book as well. Some
have even joined The Order of the White Rooster and more are following every
day.
